Watch 2 Pro (Bluetooth version)

I bought a bumper protector, basically a shell for the watch for like 2 buck on AliExpress. I charge the watch every 2 days and I get about 20% battery left before I put it on the charger. I have raise to wake on. If I disabled that and run the watch in the Battery saver mode I can get to the 60 hour mark easy. In terms of battery performance I think not much has changed. I find once I update and reboot a few times over a period of a week or two the battery performance returns to normal. I knew ahead of time that getting a Xiaomi watch was going to suck in the terms of software updates. Not a big deal for me since I use it mostly for fitness tracking. I go swimming with mine 5 times a week. The only real issue I have is that they did not fix the notifications issue for like a year now. Basically this was the best watch for the cheapest price by far at the time it was released.

(I use Xiaomi watch 2 pro BT version) For me my sleep tracking has been working mostly fine. I have only used it like 5 days, and one day it said I woke up 2 hours before I did, but else it's pretty accurate. And the Xiaomi watch 2 just got the Wear OS 5 update (as the last one bc its no longer update supported in a couple days, and idk why, but the Xiaomi watch 2 pro LTE version dont get it, only the Bluetooth version)

My gps won't even work with the standard 150 modes app, but it works with fx maps or other apps. Bought it used for 50 bucks though, so can't really complain much. 😅

I have the xiaomi watch 2, it isn't very good at tracking health metrics. Often gives inaccurate numbers. After the latest update to WearOS 5, I do notice one improvement, the battery life is a little better. I almost bought the one plus 3 because of the 5 day battery life but I think I am going to wait for the next major release and see what improvements they come up with.

in my opinion still keep in mind i'm not an expert in the matter its a great watch keeping in mind the price its one of the cheapest ones on the market with this high of quality , my honest yes easy to mod with wear os tools using adb just best supports apks everything just not directly as a dev i highly recommend but those are just my thoughts :3

I recommend xiaomi watch 2,it is about half of your budget ,top tier, easy to set ,all features needed ,my goto for first time Hope u have a great day, random person who reads this :3

Great advantage i must say of this xiaomi watch is the very fast charging. When you charge during a shower it's ready for another day and night..

I have no complaints about the xiaomi watch 2, it looks bright and does a very good job for a small price. I will try sleep tracking again. Wear Os 5 is good for a few years i think. Today i noticed the GPS of the Xiaomi is a little less accurate than Oneplus 3, but not a big problem.

No. Look for a used Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro

Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro with Mi fitness app

I don't do a whole lot on mine tbh but I took it off the charger this morning at 7am and it's now 7:30pm and the battery is at 81% Get all my phone notifications on it etc. Heart rate monitoring is set to smart, blood oxygen and stress are set to all day. Oh and steps as well. Google Wallet works great too. No complaints from me 🙂

I love the design of this watch, I would suggest a change in the UI design and the sports tracking needs work. And battery... Well it's the average terrible wearos battery life. But in general not a bad watch for the price, it's amazing
